What do you get?

No page.
"404"
A login page with username/password
A picture of gallows and letter choices?

This is NOT html, java, javascript, flash or PHP.

What you are witnessing is "Run BASIC".
An offshoot of "Liberty Basic" which is a hybrid version of the old
BASIC language.

A picture of gallows and letter choices and I got only the A wrong (and
the noose) on REMOVED. I was pleased by my early guess of V. wtf are you
doing? No, I withdraw that question, I probably don't need to know.

A newly generated page with a transitional doctype that doesn't
match the content of the page.

Thank you.
This is a new method of creating applications that work within a web
page. It works without you having to install anything unlike java
applets or flash.

The code is written in a hybrid version of BASIC and translated to a
web page.

www.runbasic.com and www.libertybasic.com

A rather crude and excruciatingly slow hangman game. I think part of the
slowness is caused by having to load the whole page again for every
letter. The only thing I liked about it was the blocking-out of no longer
available letters.

Is it intended to be used only in the USA? It felt like the letters were
trying to swim the Atlantic.

It needs to be interactive in the Ajax style. Why do I have to click
the "Accept" button after I type a letter?

This is just a demo that came with the application itself.
It's only intent is to show how the application works and the coding
for it.

The reloading is probably due to the coding which is designed to help
show how the coding works.

Why post an inferior version of a trivial Hangman program? It seems to
be intended as an advertisement for Run BASIC but it lacks the
interface that a user expects from a modern, web based, program. That
has to leave a potential customer wondering if Run Basic can support
an Ajax style application.

Richard said it was just a testing exercise.
